Prelude to the Wave Twenty Boss

*CHAPTER 500 AYOOO*

Working together as a pair, Cynrik and Brance moved from one opponent to the next until there was only a single Chimera left. Collapsing to the ground on their backs after disabling the final creature, their chests' heavy rise and fall directly indicated that they were finally exhausted. 

Unlike before, where everything had been an act, NOW they were tired. The lack of a usable weapon left Cynrik at a complete disadvantage since his DEX stat increased only his damage with a bladed weapon. 

Thus, although he was well versed in hand-to-hand combat, it was relatively ineffective against the much larger and stronger opponents, unlike Brance, who could still overpower them with his insanely high STR stat. 

Lying on their backs, gazing absent-mindedly at the sky, the brothers tried to get control of their heart rates so they could recover some Resource stats.
